It might be even better if Alicization is made into 1 hour OVAs... because such an arc deserves the animation quality and budget of a OVA project... I mean, after watching Unicorn, I realized that the best quality comes from OVAS and movies.

"Kayaba scanned his own brain with a STL prototype and died after SAO was cleared, but before that, he shrunk the Cardinal System and compiled «The Seed», a development support package for the generic VRMMO."

See that stuff WAS an STL prototype. Funny how the author uses old info to be relevant now.

In light of this, here's a tidbit of info on the Chinese translations' progress:

Spoiler for progress + MAJOR plot spoilers:

Good news, of the 12 chapter parts left in WEB8 six of them are complete. The bad news: this is the last 6 bits of the twelve, the translators skipped some in between bits due to lack of interest and taking those slowly >.<
Feel my pain and share my suffering at not knowing what happens in between, like (LAST CHANCE to turn back from spoilers):

Spoiler for End of WEB 8:

how PoH shows up; how Gabriel gathered a army of hardcore US gamers to fight for him (the kind described in GGO arc (Vol5), bloodthirsty players that logs out by suicide or killing others ingame); how the ALO cast gets summoned by Yui to kick serious ass against these players; and how Berculi goes down fighting against Gabriel.

Having said that, I can understand why the TLers jumped right into the last 6 bits first: Kirito dual wields the Blue Rose & Night Sky Swords, Release Recollection both of them to nuke 30,000+ foreign players (bloody HAX - Blue Rose drains enemies' HP/MP and disperse them into the surroundings, then Night Sky absorbs all the energy in the area to fuel its Limit Break); PoH being 'executed' by Kirito; Gabriel VS Kirito showdown, with the fate of UW at stake in the BEST FIGHT SCENE/S in the Alicization arc; Kayaba's Fluctlight finding new meaning with his existence, pulling a 'Heroic Sacrifice', saving Ocean Turtle from a nuclear reactor meltdown.
TTGL, eat your heart out, this stuff rivals your hot-bloodedness in spirit if not in galactic scale.

I'm not so sure about this part, surpassing the sheer amount of GAR-ness in the show will be hard.
